The Pennsylvania Legislature is
considering d Dill To forOId mer
chant to deal In more than one line
of goods.
No DOUBT such a bill would bene-
fit Carson. The main trouble here,
is that business men are all trying
hard to cut one another's threats.
Hardware men deal in carpets, dry
goods men deal In hardware, grocers
in outside goods, aud the statloners
take orders for printing and send
the orders below. When a man
goes outside of his regular business
he generally does it to get even on
his neighbor and sells the goods at
cost. All this demnralizes business
and does the town no good.
